VII. Conclusion: Be sure to restate the problem and why you think your solution is the best possible course of action.
There are problems is society today. Those problems are as follows:
The government cannot find a suitable way to tax everyone in a proper manner.
The government is not acquiring enough revenue. It does not have enough money to support public programs or to distribute the impoverished citizens of the United States.
The wealthy are finding loopholes which negatively impact the economy because it cuts down the budgets of public services.
Our best solution is as follows:
In addition to the progressiveness of income tax, which results in the tax brackets of 10%, 15%, 25%, 28%, 33%, and 35% depending on income earnings, we need to increase the highest tax bracket's proportional tax percentage by five. The highest tax bracket is 35% for all who earn more than or equal to $373,650 of annual income. Along with the increased proportional tax of the 35% tax bracket we will increase the enforcement and punishments for avoiding tax payments.
This solution is the best possible course of action because it bestows the government with additional revenue from those who can afford to provide the government with the additional revenue. Along with the government ensuring that they receive the payments that are required by law.
